You can't put a bandage on a bullet wound that's common knowledge
But I was taught if the wound was covered
It was practically fixed because no one could see it
No one would know about the pain but meBecause of that
Every wound I gained
Had a nice patch placed on top
I never realized how damaging that could be on the insideYou were raised the same
When we found each other, we chose to let each other in
Peeling off our patches for the first time
We compared our matching scars
Bonded by what broke usWe knew we weren't okay when we started
We used each other for comfort
Like children with stuffed animals
We couldn't do anything for each other, but knowing the other was there was enoughI knew we weren't forever
So when I felt us sliping
I tried grabbing on tighter
That wasn't what we neededI hated you for everything
Especially how we ended
You fucked me up
But I didn't exactly make you better eitherI'm not better yet
But I'm getting there slowly
The scars of mine that you reopened
Have been patched up once again
So I forgive youI forgive you and I wish for you to be nothing less than happy
I want you to be okay
I want you to enjoy living
I want the best for youI wish I could've been the best for you
I wish I could've made you better
I wish I was what made you happy
But I couldnt and still cant smile wide enough for both of usI hope you find peace and happiness
I hope you can smile more
I hope you find a person that helps you patch you scars
So you don't have to do it alone like me
I hope you don't get hurt anymore
